Trying to compare having one child to the former standard of 3-4 children, where many house chores are vastly easier due to conveniences such as the dish washer or washing machine and then getting :smug: about it is pretty dickish.

Well then it didn't come across right. I'm trying to say that having kids isn't a bleak pit of despair and that it can actually be fun.

You were replying to a post trying to give context as to why women might choose to go for 'time saving' food that we consider trash here when they have the knowledge and skill to put out amazing food. So yes, I'd say it came across wrong.

I'm not trying to say that I don't commiserate with dino.'s feeling of :sigh:, but it's possible to regret that they felt the need to do that while understanding the context which pushed them to that choice. Additionally, I didn't feel like CC's post was saying that these mothers were miserable.

This is true; some moms don't really have a choice. You're probably right in that respect.

Sometimes you guys gets upset about stuff I simply don't understand...

Dino's regretting that his aunt, who's a great cook, has elected to discover the mysteries of the crock pot, because he likes her cooking.

CuddleChunks writes an awesome homage to the women of yore, who had hard choices and made them correctly.

Walk Away likes kids, and thinks that other people should be gifted with a rich experience like that, and that it is not as hard as some people make it out to be.

That was what I read...

I guess I am not looking hard enough to find the offensive, on the other hand... This should perhaps be seen in the context of political correctness, where everyone are understating whatever they mean, while the rest of the world takes great offense..

Also, why is a dick by definition a term for someone who is annoying or irrespective of others feelings? I mean, penis' are not always in the way, and they can be sensitive too.. A dick can bring joy to those in need of good dicking too..

Under the assumption that a prick an a dick is the same, and is used interchangeably..

If a prick means a stick, then I am bewildered, and in need of education, on the other hand, I have made that kind of mistake before with 'cock sauce', by which I assumed sperm, and it was something entirely different and less pungent.

Yeah, crockpots are cool. I think they're looked down on as not being `serious' culinary gear because crockpot cookbooks tend to be anthologies of crimes against humanity. Committed in eight hours on low or four on high. Especially if they're one of those goddamn spiral-bound things that seem to be produced as if by spontaneous generation whenever you get enough whitebread dottering crones together---church groups, PTA groups, that kind of thing. Rotel and canned cream of mushroom, fair is foul, and foul is fair.

Crockpots used as :3 little braising robots are great. It's when they're used because people want to mash a bunch of quick and easy canned poo poo into a pot and come back 8h later to a fully cooked meal that they're bad.

I look forward to reading your posts like an old maid looks forward to opening her tray from meals on wheels to see if tonight, of all nights, should be sausage night (casing imperative).

You leave me wanting for more, and you make a decent meal too..

For a skinny little gay kid who grew up in far too many backwards towns, where every single one of his classmates knew that he was the resident fag from the time he was in middle school (long before he knew himself), who thought that he'd never have even an acquaintance, much less a friend, you guys make me feel like all that was worth it. Thanks for accepting me for who I am, unapologetically. You don't ask me to change. You don't laugh at me even though my flame does burn rather brightly. It really means a lot to me that I can know a group of people who really are intelligent, and interesting to be around, and over-all awesome, who actually /want/ to hang out with me too. :) What I'm saying is, thanks for being you.

Watching Jamie Oliver's Ministry of Food, and getting really maudlin and lovey towards everyone, because I'm watching these folks have epiphanies. They're learning that food doesn't have to come from garbage food takeaway places. There are kids who are eating their parents's cooking for the first time ever, and enjoying it. There's real bloke-y types knocking up a lovely meal, and looking proud enough fit to burst. No matter how jaded I get over the years, watching that transformation always touches my heart at the very core, because it reminds me of the first time that my mum asked me to make a meal on my own. And that feeling of pride that I felt when everyone was praising my mum for the amazing food. Which, of course, she waited until all the praise hit a fever pitch, and announced, "All that praise should go to Dino. He's the one who made the entire thing." I love you, mother. <3

I don't post that much, but I feel this is an appropriate time to chime in and say you almost single-handedly changed my perception of vegans (for the better) and seem to be a pretty cool dude who can pull off some magical poo poo in the kitchen, and I would totally come eat at your restaurant if I ever go back to NYC :v:
